For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce. If you can't find chicken-style seitan, you can use regular seitan. Just be sure to cube it and brown it well for the best texture. Feel free to add other vegetables, such as broccoli florets, snap peas, or carrots. The sauce can be adjusted to your taste. Add more brown sugar for a sweeter sauce, or more vinegar for a tangier sauce.
